Quartics, Inc., the premier provider of video processing solutions showed off JumpTV this month at CES in Las Vegas. Consumers can now receive international television over the Internet and display it onto their preferred choice of displays. Now, with Quartics PC2TV™ technology, consumers will be able to view Internet-based content, such as JumpTV, on their own TVs, projectors and monitors without the hassle of extra wires.
Safi Qureshey, chairman and CEO of Quartics, said “With Quartics’ solution, consumers are not limited to watching TV content from other countries on their PC, they can experience it on their own TV or projector and at high quality. With PC2TV, consumers can access content wherever they are, without having to deal with video drivers or wires.”
The PC2TV chip is a comprehensive media processing system that fits into a hardware adapter and plugs into the video input line of a television, monitor, or projector. All you have to do is plug a hardware adapter into the video input line, and within a matter of seconds the PC is able to project video and audio to the screen of choice. This is the only solution on the market that offers this degree of elegance or ease-of-use in liberating PC-resident content. For the first time ever, consumers and sports fans can get any TV show or sports game via the web and watch it on their TV or projector, not their computer monitor.
Other solutions such as MSN-TV and the Apple iTV are limited in the types of media supported. MSN-TV only operates with Windows Media-compatible files. Apple iTV only works with iTunes media. Quartics has developed proprietary technology that allows a consumer to pull content stored in all popular media formats and play it on their preferred screen to overcome these limitations. No more downloading new players. No more wrestling with transcoding content to compatible formats. Quartics’ solutions support all the popular codec standards such as MPEG2, WM9, JPG, and REAL.
